As for determining which animals have been strangled and not drained of their blood, we must understand that the focus was on the quantity of blood remaining in the meat of the animal. It was not the fact that the animal was strangled that kept it from being eaten, but the fact that it was never drained of its blood.
The Eocene constitutes the middle part of the Paleogene period (65-23 million years ago), preceded by the Paleocene and succeeded by the Oligocene epoch (34-23 million years ago); all of these periods and epochs were part of the Cenozoic Era (65 million years ago to the present).
The Mesozoic Era is the name for the period of time that began about 252 million years ago and ended about 66 million years ago. This era is divided into three geologic period â¦ s: the Triassic (from 252 to 201 million years ago), the Jurassic (201 to 145 million years ago), and the Cretaceous (145 to 66 million years ago).
